Gee, wasn’t the left and our President just scolding about ‘rhetoric’?

Via The Hill:

Director Spike Lee sees parallels between GOP presidential front-runner Donald Trump and Nazi leader Adolf Hitler.

“He wants to close down the mosques now,” Lee said Monday in an interview with The Daily Beast, referring to Trump.

“That’s like the Nazis,” Lee continued. “That’s Hitler, [Italian fascist leader Benito] Mussolini, the Axis powers.

“You can’t do that,” the filmmaker added.

Trump is pushing for closer scrutiny of America’s Islamic communities following last month’s terrorist attacks in Paris. About 130 people died and more than 300 others were wounded during coordinated violence across the French capital on Nov. 13.

Trump has responded by calling for stricter surveillance of the nation’s mosques following the attacks. He has also proposed a national registry of Syrian refugees.
